About The Position

A warm, high-performing Chicago family is seeking an exceptional full-time live-in nanny to care for their 2.5-year-old child. This is a unique opportunity to join a dynamic household led by a sports owner and CEO family. The environment is intellectually curious, fast-paced, and deeply values warmth, professionalism, and partnership. The right candidate will bring a polished, proactive approach alongside a genuinely joyful and engaging presence. The family is seeking a long-term nanny who takes pride in their craft—someone who can seamlessly move between educator, caregiver, travel companion, and trusted partner within the home. The child currently attends half-day school two days per week, increasing to three days in the fall. The nanny will play a central role in shaping her daily rhythm, development, and early learning. The family travels domestically and internationally throughout the year (both commercial and private), and the nanny should be comfortable and confident accompanying them in a variety of settings—from vacations to business travel and social engagements.
